The Wayne Newton Theatre is one of the best equipped theaters in Branson. The theater is the home of Wayne Newton's show and hosts world-famous headline entertainment throughout the season.
The Wayne Newton Theatre name is new for 1999. In 1998, the same theater had the name "Talk of the Town Theatre".
Theater: Barn style building, only on the elegant side. The stage curtain is unique, it is a mural of an old-fashioned Ozark hoedown. Sound and lighting are state-of-the-art. Large projection screens on either side of the stage bring live performers up close, and are also used for visual effects.
Seating: 2,200 of the most comfortable, wide seats with plenty of leg room. All seats have good visibility. Show is fairly straight on. The only seats where the may be a problem would be the first rows behind the wheelchair section.
Handicap access: Excellent. Wheelchair section at the back of the wide transverse aisle.
Special feature: Cry Room in the back with a bathroom and changing table.
Show: The shows are upbeat, fast-paced, family-oriented. The headliners are joined by professional bands, singers, and dancers. Newton is booked frequently throughout the season when not appearing in other venues such as Las Vegas or Atlantic City. All the hits and great oldies are performed along with new upbeat songs. The shows aren't extravaganzas, they're simple, filled with quality and class.
Due to headliner scheduling, call ahead to see who is appearing, 417-335-2000.
See Wayne Newton Tour Schedule or refer to the Branson show schedules below.
Location: Near 65 and 248 on the northeast side of Branson. Next to Will Rogers Theatre.
